I think I'm still going to mix my fuel anyway. Four strokes dont smell as good as two strokes. I think thats why the two stroke guys always say the  four strokes stink. lol ;) ;D

Post by: 450R_Matt on July 08, 2006, 11:19:11 PM
Well the quad is bask in action. :P Had the old girl out for a little funn tonight. My camera is down  >:(but when I get it runing I will post some pics... Would have like to have put new plastics on it and my new seat cover. But lack of $$$ is keeping me from doing this right now. :'(
The bugs got me tonight but the time I was on the quad it was awesome. This thing handles perfect. The cornering is way better than the stock frame and it feals better ballanced.  8)

I will say this....What a pain but in the end it was worth it!   ;D
